1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

aimsMavacamten, the first approved myosin inhibitor for symptomatic obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (oHCM), addresses hypercontractility and left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. This study evaluates real-world experience with mavacamten, focusing on maintenance dose determination to optimise individual therapy and enhance patient safety.

methods36 patients with symptomatic oHCM who completed the initiating phase of mavacamten therapy were analysed.

resultsThe mean age of patients was 60.6±12.1, and all had normal

conclusionMavacamten therapy is safe and effective in the initiating phase. Determination of starting and maximum dose is based on
